Hi, you haven't mentioned which programmer/debugger you're using. If you're using STLinkV2 Programme

Hi, you haven't mentioned which programmer/debugger you're using. If you're using STLinkV2 Programmer with a custom STM32 board then check the pin connection/circuit twice. Also, make sure if in case the programmer is a clone then test it before programming a custom STM32 board. The more details you provide on h/w connection better we can help. Happy learning!

Few days ago on this server I posted about I want to extract data from a rs485 flow meter , Adler the suggestion I did write the code the communication between arduino and flow meter was successfully but , it’s unable to read the data as I don’t have the exact register and the address which is responsible for that data , even the manual doesn’t mention it . Is there a way to find it ? I have the name of the chip .

Accur4te•6/20/24, 6:12 AM

atmega 16

Accur4te•6/20/24, 6:12 AM

i dig the info up - i got exact value of the register yet , arduino is unable to retrive info

Accur4te•6/20/24, 6:23 AM

0x4001 to 0x4003 ---> flow rate value
0x4004-->flow rate value unit
0x4005 to 0x4007 -->totalizer value
0x4008-->totalizer value unit

Accur4te•6/20/24, 6:23 AM

irst digit is data bits which is 8b
Second digital is Parity which you select as N for None, E for Even, O for Odd
Third digit is stop bite which you can select as 1 / 2 bits

Accur4te•6/22/24, 2:18 PM

Hey everyone, I need some advice. My dad, who's a businessman in the flowmeter industry, thinks the two projects I've been working on for the past 3 months are big steps and that I'm trying to skip some steps. The projects are an ESP mesh for flowmeters and an electromagnetic flowmeter. I agree with him to some extent.

I'll be joining my second year in ECE college in the next few days. What do you think my next step should be? Should I try to get an internship in a business related to IoT (my field of interest), or should I focus on learning more theory? I already have 7+ years of experience with electronics (mainly Arduino, ESP, and Raspberry Pi) and recently finished learning Embedded C. I genuinely need help deciding. I'm really passionate about electronics, especially IoT. Thanks!

Not sure if I'm the right person to answer. But if I have been at your place. I'd have preferred to engage in an internship to gain more technical hands-on experience with professional tools used in embedded & IoT. All this is to be done along with academic studies.

Hi @Event Pings
Last week some of our Engineering Hour attendees experienced technical difficulties with the stream of @Edison's session on DMA so I'm uploading the recording here. As a reminder, here's

Direct Memory Access & How It Will Transform Your Prototype for Production
You’ve heard of direct memory access and know it’s important in certain settings. Now, as your prototype gets closer to becoming a viable product, you need to optimize resources and performance. It’s time to dive head first into the world of DMA.

DMA provides a clear path from peripherals like sensors to memory, circumventing the microcontroller or microprocessor so it can remain dedicated to other tasks. That’s the simplest explanation of DMA, but under the hood there’s a lot more going on.

Tune in as IoT developer and trainer Edison Ngunjiri will walk us through the basics of DMA on an STM32 microcontroller by providing an overview of:

The STM32 DMA architecture
Key components: Channels, Streams, Requests, etc.
DMA Modes of Operation: Normal, Circular

*After providing this background, Edison will perform a step-by-step DMA configuration in the STM32CubeIDE where he’ll set up DMA channels, streams, and integrate peripherals. He’ll then discuss application examples before walking through DMA event and interrupt handling, which he’ll demonstrate during a live memory-to-memory data transfer. *

Don’t miss the chance to learn or brush up on your DMA skills.

However, you'll have to attend Engineering Hours to see all of each of them

I'll also post a link to this in the https://discord.com/channels/1130679493799977062/1212286094830477323 channel chat so you can pose questions to Edison/others about DMA and related topics.
